Custom Glove Gallery (questions and answers)
sniper_23 replied to elpresidente99's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
Not sure about the ones from PSHG but my team ordered a custom set of Synergy 800's in the CHI colour scheme and they are WAY better than the retail E-Pro's. The material, construction, and feel were much better on the 800's. They were also made in Canada. -
Just added the Chicago Easton Pro Stock gloves to the collection.

Switching Holder Sizes---263mm to 254mm
sniper_23 replied to johnpace2's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
It shouldn't take too long to adjust at all. Usually it takes 2-3 skates and you'll be comfortable again. I went from 272 on my old skates to 263s and now i'm on 263s with 2.1 steel. -

Where on earth did you get those...been wanting them ever since I first saw the new color scheme for VAN. Hook a brotha up! Canucks Sale! I hope there are more at the next sale. This was pretty much the only pair in brand new condition.

Product: Synergy SE Non Grip (1)Pro-Stock McCabe, (2)Pro-Stock Pyatt Curve: (1)Slight Heel Open, (2)Moderate Heel Open Flex: Felt like 85 - no posted flex ratings on the sticks Height: 5'9" Weight: 180lbs Type: Ice Hockey Blade: The blade on the SE has good feel for the puck. It doesn't feel as stiff as other blades I've used. Passing and Shooting are great with this stick. Blade durability wasn't so great as both my SE's broke in the blade. Stick (1) got caught along the boards and the blade snapped in half, while stick (2) ended up splitting along the bottom of the blade. 8.5/10 Flex: As I posted above - there were no flex ratings on either sticks. They did feel very good in the flex department. They flexed a lot during slap shots but didn't feel like they were whipping out. The kick point also felt very low on the shaft so shots were very consistent and very hard. I noticed I was shooting harder right off the bat with both of these sticks. The SE's definitely shine in this area. 10/10 Weight and balance: The SE doesn't feel too light or too heavy. It seems to be balanced very well overall. I have no complaints in this area and never really thought about it when I was using them so that must be a good sign. 9/10 Durability: The performance of these sticks were very good. Shooting, passing, stick handling etc. are a breeze with the SE. Both the SE's I was using broke within 2 months of usage. Stick (1) was unfortunate - I broke it along the boards. I guess that is an unfair review since it was just a case of bad luck. Stick (2) was used about 20 times before the blade split along the bottom. It does seem that durability is a common issue with the SE after talking to some friends with similar problems. 7/10 Shooting/Passing: The SE definitely shines in the area of shooting. The stick flexes in the right places and shots rocket off the blade. My slap shot was immediately harder the first time I used this stick. Quick releases with snap shots and wrist shots were also a breeze. Passing felt good as well. The blade doesn't seem as stiff as other blades and taking hard passes is no problem at all with the SE. 10/10 Conclusion: The performance of this stick is very good. Shots are very hard and accurate. The stick has good balance and feels great on the ice. I would highly recommend the Synegy Elite if you don't have a problem with the price tag and some probable durability issues. 44.5/50

Product: RBK 7k Sickick Curve: Jagr Pro Stock LH - Mid-Heel with Very Open Toe Flex: Stiff Flex 45KP Height: 5'9" Weight: 180lbs Type: Ice Hockey Blade: Super stiff blade with OK feel. The puck just rockets off the blade during the first few sessions. Shots were accurate and hard but the blade doesn't compare to the feel from an XXX-lite. 8.5/10 Flex: I normally use 87 Flex Nike Bauer and 85 Flex Easton sticks so going to the stiff flex in the RBK was a change. It felt a little stiff at the beginning but the stick had a really good kick especially during snap shots and slap shots due to the low kick point in the shaft. It definitely felt excellent after I got adjusted to it. 9/10 Weight and balance: Feels lighter than it is which is great. People were surprised by how light it felt. On the ice it was balanced. It didn't feel too blade light or heavy - it was just right. 9/10 Durability: I purchased 2 pro-stock Jagr's and broke the 1st stick within the first 5 uses. It was absolutely shooting rockets but ended up breaking on a one-timer from the slot. The blade snapped in half right in the middle. I wasn't too pleased about that but the 2nd stick is still going strong. However it has lost its' feel for some reason and I have switched sticks because of that. The blade is still fairly stiff but the stick doesn't seem to generate the kick and power it used too. The 2nd stick has taken a ton of abuse - it has chips and nicks all over it but it is still in one piece. 7.5/10 Shooting/Passing: This stick definitely shines in this category. Shots were immediately harder and very accurate. The puck just rockets off the blade. As I said before my 1st stick broke within a few sessions and the 2nd stick seemed to lose its power/feel after about 15-20 sessions on the ice. It just seems dead and doesn't have the pop or the power it had when it was brand new. I enjoyed it while it lasted though. 9/10 Conclusion: I've used Dolomites, XXX-lites, SEs, SLs, to name a few OPS's and this stick definitely keeps up with the pack. I enjoyed the brilliant shots that this stick produced but it only lasted a short while. I would recommend this stick to people who don't have a big budget for sticks as you can find 7K's for fairly cheap now that the 9K's have been released. 43/50

That CCM would look awesome with those old school Canucks jerseys.

that is a great glove, i purchased a pair similar to those on ebay. if the auction has a "make an offer" option, go $70-$80 US, that would probably do it Be sure to get a quote on shipping before you commit- I was looking at a pair, and shipment to the US was close to 40 bucks. $40? Why? Assuming he is from Canada, how is it $40? I ship stuff to Canada all the time and the most its ever been is $15. Is it more coming out of Canada then going into? I shipped a pair of gloves to the USA for about 20$ Canadian with Expressmail. If its more than that he's probably just charging some more dough to make up for the low selling price of his auctions. This seems to be a general trend with ebay and with shipments across the border.

2007 Nike/Bauer Catalogue
sniper_23 replied to JR Boucicaut's topic in 2007 Product Catalogue Reviews
Damn I was looking forward to seeing some XXXX gloves - oh well. The SDP Pro Roll gloves are a great deal for MSRP of 99$ - I'm using some Supreme 5000 pro stock nylon ones similar to those right now and they are awesome gloves. -
